Ludlow Colts end three game winless run
Ludlow Town Colts ended a run of three games without a win by claiming a hard-fought success away to Herefordshire County League rivals Holme Lacy.
Colts’ cause was not helped by some last-minute availability issues that saw a few players pull out on the morning of the game.
But the visitors made light of those problems as they overturned a half-time deficit to win 2-1 thanks to two second-half strikes from Aaron Hodge.
Colts started well with Tom Dwyer finding himself on-on-one, but his effort was saved.
The contest was fairly even but it was the home side who struck first when they headed home from a corner.
Colts pressed for an equaliser and were almost rewarded when a foul on Hodge resulted in a free-kick 20 yards out from which Luke Hicks rattled the crossbar.
But the Colts levelled after the break when some fine work down the left from Josh Bull teed-up Hodge to make it 1-1.
Some great individual play from Hodge then saw him outwit a defender before slotting home the winning goal.
